RBKE963B - Help picking cable modem for Spectrum
I purchased a New Orbi 6E kit and have it installed. I would like to replace the Spectrum CM with a new model that will match the Orbi system as Spectrum increases its speeds from 1 G to 2-5G to 10G...
the fastest modem right now is the CM2000 which has a 2.5g port.
I haven't seen any 5g or 10g ports on consumer modems (and the ISP's don't support that on docsis 3.1)
Thanks! We d/c'd our home phones due to quack callers (40+ per day) and now use cell phones and RoboKiller (great software BTW), so only need the modem.
Cheers!

Spectrum's approved modem list is here:

(Click on the 1G DOCSIS 3.1 heading.)
Picking a model with a 2.5G compatible port is probably a good "future proofing" idea.
Thanks, what do you think of the RAX80? It's a router (I don't need) and a CM up to 6G. Mike
I ordered the CM2000. Thanks again,
